Jobs with Vex, WCP, AndyMark or other Robotics related companies

I am looking for a new job right now, and am interesting in moving away from where I live currently and trying something new. I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions on where I could look. I think someplace like Vex would be cool, but I don't see anywhere on their website on who to contact about an Internship or job. If anybody knows, or has any other suggestions on someplace cool and exciting to try it would be greatly appreciated. I'm pretty much open to anywhere in the US. Actually I don't know how easy it is to get a work visa, but if its not too hard Canada wouldn't be out of the question either, if I could find something there.

Thanks

It might help if you specified what your skillset is.

Wow I totally spaced on that.

As a student and mentor I was always better at Design and Programming. I know a decent amount of Inventor, LabVIEW and C#. I was the electrical captain one year as well. I really enjoyed being the leader of the team, and I felt that if the team failed, I failed and it was my job to get the problems fixed and working again.

I have always been good at finding solutions to little problems and bugs that are well hidden away. I really enjoy digging though things in order to find the little problems, and finding problems before they show up, and trying to fix them.

I am currently a student at Portland Community College working on classes needed for an ECE or CS degree, but I still need to find a 4 year to go after that.
